Our research project “Receipt2Nutrition” will be the world’s first large-scale voluntary panel that contributes digital receipt data from loyalty cards anonymously to assess the data’s potential to predict dietary behaviour automatically.

Our work on purchase feedback applications enable Swiss consumers to receive tailored nutritional feedback based on ingredient data of purchased products. We assess the impact of gamification, tailoring of dietary information on the intention forming and ultimately behaviour on these novel feedback apps.

Together with D-CHAB/ETH we are launching a mobile app through which consumers can measure their regular exposure to Isothiazolinones, a rarely known chemical that causes skin irritation and is part of most beauty and health products.
